Industrialist Harsh Goenka has lauded a group of young entrepreneurs from Bengaluru whose innovative startup idea has captured hearts across social media. The children, Sharada, Nachiket, and Samudyata, presented their eco-friendly business &ldquo;Eco Wala,&rdquo; which produces handmade paper bags &mdash; crafted without glue or scissors.
Their confident and creative pitch was shared in a viral video, where they explained their simple yet impactful business model. The startup offers a monthly subscription for just ₹10, delivering two paper bags to customers every Sunday. They also provide additional bags for events and functions, along with free samples for first-time users.
Impressed by their enthusiasm, Goenka, Chairman of RPG Enterprises, shared the video on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption: &ldquo;Forget Shark Tank, forget Ideabaaz, this pitch stole my heart.&rdquo;
The post quickly gained traction online, drawing praise from thousands of users for the children&rsquo;s confidence, sincerity, and commitment to sustainability. One user commented, &ldquo;Even adults wouldn&rsquo;t be able to perform with such precision. This is what India needs &mdash; small, meaningful businesses.&rdquo; Another described the video as &ldquo;one of the most delightful posts of the day,&rdquo; while others called it &ldquo;pure motivation.&rdquo;
However, a few voices on social media also reminded parents to let children enjoy their childhood, urging balance between learning entrepreneurship and living freely.
The &ldquo;Eco Wala&rdquo; initiative stands as a shining example of how creativity, environmental awareness, and youthful passion can come together to inspire positive change.
